I have to agree with Mike! Can anything else be made? Its like I'd love to see a Western Maryland M-2 Challenger, Even a Western Maryland M-1, 2-6-6-2, or hell how about a C&O H-7? OR better yet a B&O EL-5 to be a running mate to the Spectrum EM-1!
Now I'll really go out on a limb and say a B&O KB-1? 2-6-6-4, that could also be painted in Seaboard as well as the B&O! The B&O actually purchased those from Seaboard and made 'em famous......
Anything then another Big Boy, everyone makes them! Make something, anything that hasn't been done before! It be nice to see Western Maryland 2-8-0's!

No, No, I'm scratchbuilding one. Seems like when I try to build a loco that no model company produces, they produce one. Like Bowser and their SCL C430.
Actually, I think that would be a nice model subject. Or maybe N&W's S1a, that last steam locomotive produced in the USA for USA roads.
Unspoken expectations are premeditated failures.
